Yesterdays solar observing event at Michigan Science center.

I arrived late and only stayed a few minutes, snapping a few photos of the Faac volunteers and staff member manning the telescopes for safe solar viewing.

They had a quite a variety of ways to view the sun. Tim Campbell had a very nice HA outfit that showed solar flares blasting off the moon. Tim also had Leon's refractor and a great Hershel wedge setup that showed a lot of detail for sunspot viewing. James French had a solar white light filter allowing views of sunspots and the science center had a light funnel attached to their telescope allowing a safe solar projection of sunspots to be seen.
